Chapter 27 Prognitor Of Divinity
He couldn't help but sigh as he circulated his faith power to cleanse his body. As precious as it comes, only 5 points would do the job to get him thoroughly cleaned and in top condition.
'Speaking of points, I wonder how much I have now. With my followers, I believe that I receive 306 points per month. It might be higher than my peers, but that's just by a few tens of points right?
'If I divide my total points by 306, won't I get to know how long I've been cultivating for? Plus, it's about time I do something for my believers isn't it?' As he thought, he checked the template once again and was surprised by the total number.
'That much?' That was because his faith points naturally went past the thousand point threshold, meaning he could gain one unit of faith power right about now.
• • • • •
Faith: 1 107,44 Faith Points [0 Faith Power]
• • • • •
A thousand one hundred divided by three hundred, so he cultivated for about... more than three months? That's quite long, for mortals though, but felt like an instant to him.
He then disregarded such minor details about time and whatnot, it was stupid for a god to worry about time. And he thus went off to more important business.
Looking at the large amount, for his level, of faith points, he wondered what he could do for his believers. If he didn't do anything for them, believers could lose their faith in their gods.
Though he really doubted such a thing could happen. Pixies were simple creature, plus his pixies were Fanatic Believers, making it hard for them to lose their faith in him.
But because of this, it also made it hard for him to do something for them as well. Though, he felt like this was a good chance to use one of his deific abilities on them.

[The Compulsory] was a special ability of his from [Soul King's Vault], that seemed mysteriously aligned to advancement, mutation and evolution. Just like [Rabbit God's Arsenal], it had a lot of various skills within, but what he truly wanted was the "Evolution Governance" for now.
As long as he had enough faith points, he could evolve other beings or objects. He didn't know if he could do so infinitely, but he believed that it was not likely, how broken would that be?
'By the way, something's strange with me. I seem to be able to use energy source either than faith points. It can't be faith power as it's still a beautiful and elegant zero, as for true divine power, only when we becomes a main god could we truly use true divine power... efficiently.
'So which power is this? The deities' divine power? But true gods can't use such a low power source can they? If they convert one faith point, they could get a thousand units of divine power.
'But who in their right minds would choose to swim in mud while having a swimming pool in their house? Plus, using faith points increases the spells or skills by twice compared to using divine power. So, us true gods wont stoop so low.'
"But it seems like you have already stooped so low, young deity"
The system suddenly appeared out of nowhere and concluded the words of Enigma. Enigma who was in his thoughts ignored its sarcastic tone and nodded casually, as he agreed.
'True.'
He said, causing the system to click its tongue in annoyance, don't ask how he knew that. It was sort of a mechanical reading talent or mechanical language sort of thing.
'By the way, you seem to know about this more than I do. So, I truly have divine power of this world inside my body?' Enigma rubbed his chin in interest as he asked.
"Indeed"
The system responded. Since Enigma was someone who rarely cared about any desires or rarely indulged in his emotions that much, the system stopped playing around and answered his questions seriously.
'How Unique, so how much of this divine power do I have? Compared to the deities, in which category do I fall in, in terms of energy capacity?' Due to curiosity, Enigma asked the system as he watched the young ladies twitch on the floor.
It's been a few minutes, it was close to time for them to wake up. Maybe about now or a few more minutes later. As he was waiting for the reply from the ever reliable albeit lively system, he realised that seconds have passed without an answer from the system.
"...."
'....'
'Is the system losing its reliability? And after I complimented you, of your ever reliability, tsk tsk tsk.' Enigma thought as he shook his head in feigned disappointment. Cause he knew that something was wrong for the system to be like this.
It was... right?
Systems are supposed to be really helpful right? So if it was not helpful, then something was definitely wrong. This was the mentality the young god had.
'...You still there, buddy?' He called out from his mind as he saw the panel floating in his mind space, within the panel was nothing bit blankness. Showing its current emotional state.
"...unlimited"
The system finally replied lightly, it's soft albeit stiff indifferent tone sounding even more rigid and stiffer than usual. Enigma felt like he mishead it and asked it to repeat itself.
'Err, excuse me, what was that? I think I heard unlimited for a second there.' He asked as he bitterly smiled at the system's response. What did unlimited mean? That he was a literal walking mass of divine power?
"...Yes"
'...Wow.'
Now it was his turn to turn completely speechless as he looked at the system's bitter response. Now he knew why the system took its time to respond, he was probably a broken cheat to it.
But to him, an infinite amount of mud pools were still not as noteworthy as a few hundreds of clear water pools. That was why, 'Hey, cant we just convert the divine power into faith points?
'Unlimited amount of divine power literally meant... a, large, amount, of... it's basically unlimited faith points, right?' He finally stopped thinking and immediately realised where the problem stood at.
"..."N-No worries, for the young master's sake, we have come up with a way for him to enjoy life as an ordinary true god. So---""
'Who said I wanted to be a normal true god?' Enigma mentally retorted, unfortunately his thoughts were laid bare since he was already in his mind space.
But the recording or voice transmission of Kaguya sent by the system ignored him and kept talking. To be honest, he also didn't like the idea of infinite faith points, won't he be bored of life very soon in that case? What's the use of trying then?
Plus, it felt surreal.
Especially if he didn't know why he had such terrifying powers and also not knowing who or what he was in the past Era. He could be the Apocalypse's Reincarnation for all we know.
Ha ha ha, jokes aside, he really didn't like free and powerful 'gifts'. Plus...
""...So we came up with a way to help you convert the divine power in your body into faith points. Considering the time it would take for the conversion as well as the time to purify the divine power, you will recieve the amount of faith points by dividing the total population under your name by a thousand. This way, young master could gain faith points and also have divine power to use, so that the gained faith points is not wasted on menial tasks. Young master won't be bored of life any time soon right? Isn't Kaguya great?"
Enigma felt like Kaguya was holding her chest up and expecting a Praise from him. With this much explaination and a job well done for her work, he wouldn't mind patting her head even.
She was... a Rabbit Goddess afterall. It was as if he himself forgot that he was a Rabbit God. But he was not stingy with his words, 'Hm, you're impressive Kaguya. I'm actually impressed, and thankful for your meticulous work.
'Perhaps I can forgive you for dumping three children on me without a warning, and then running away. Speaking of children, where the hell are my babies?'
Enigma couldn't help but twitch his eyes as he thought about the three pets, no children of his. He had forgotten about them.
He didn't find them anywhere when he woke up, meaning that they were probably off somewhere in the forest. Well, their true bodies were inside him, so they won't truly die even if they did.
But still, he was a bad parent...
""....""
Not only Kaguya from the other side, but even the system was surprised by Enigma's attitude towards the three little beasts. He so easily accepted them, to the point where they found it hard to believe.
But they had forgotten that the three little beasts had his bloodline inside them, and as there were probably no more than ten Mystiques left, the more the merrier. Plus, they were cute and lovable.
"...it seems your guests have woken up, how about you entertain them instead? I'll be here if you need me, recovering from this discovery"
The system cut off his thoughts process as it reminded him of his current situation outside the mind space. This reminder caused him to immediately cut off contact with the system and open his eyes in the material plane.
"...freak"
The system muttured in a human like tone, boundless emotions contained in that one word, emotions that could not be found within a mechanical lifeform or an A.I lifeform.
